The image of design is always tainted with an expectation of high costs, time delays and sometimes  poor results. EC1 with over 40 combined years of design experience work closely with the customer to obtain exactly what they require.

A general assumption is that all design is a ‘flash of inspiration’ incorporated with huge amounts of Google time, but the best design comes from a well-executed brief. Our job starts not by showing our clients pretty colours and papers but talking and finding out about what they expect and what is required, trying to get to know not just our clients but their customers. This normally includes an initial conversation on budget too as this is more important to most clients than ever before in today’s unpredictable global economy.

Our design experience crosses over from below the line into above the line. It includes simple cost effective work for budget-less charities to some of the largest high street names. Whether it is illustration based or requires photography EC1 have the ability and passion to design the best work for our clients, not ourselves!
